A Rising Rebellion – Acts 2:41-47

Acts 2:41-47

In Acts 1 you have a picture of a rising Kingdom,and just verses before the ones we are studying the Spirit has come in power and what we will see now is a rising kingdom, a kingdom that will advance through little outposts called the church. It is striking that although just verses before these amazing things are transpiring Luke immdiately turns to what seem to be very simple things that characterize the local church. These are signs of a coming rebellion and a rising kingdom that cannot be stopped! We are a church/people that signal the rebellion by devoting ourselves very simple things! So as we plant churches and do these churchly things mentioned. We are a part of something cosmic, a signal of a triumphant Kingdom, and we are an army in exile about to topple the cosmic powers over this present darkness and the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.
